Belleville Police have arrested a local man following investigations into physical altercations in recent weeks.
Sunday before at 6:30 p.m., BPS officers investigated a report involving a male and female known to one another.
It was reported that the male had attended the female’s workplace despite being directed not to contact the female.
During the investigation, officers learned of two separate incidents that had occurred in previous weeks.
It was reported that in one incident, a verbal dispute led to the male striking the female in the face with his elbow, while in the second incident, the male reportedly shoved the female into a wall after a verbal altercation.
A 45-year-old Belleville man was ultimately located, arrested and charged with two counts of assault.
He was released on an undertaking with a court date in February.
